Conceived as a true acoustic art piece equipped with Bluetooth 5.0 technology, the Balloon Dog speaker delivers 360° high-fidelity sound with exceptional richness and depth. Its enveloping soundscape is born from the harmonious alliance of six ultra-precise active drivers and four finely tuned passive radiators, meticulously crafted to elevate the low frequencies. Every note fills the space with rare sensory intensity, transforming each moment into a deeply immersive listening experience.

Packed with built-in microphones, it supports hands-free calls through your connected device, offering a fun and practical way to enjoy your Balloon Dog Speaker.

Inflated with Engineering: The 50,000-Hour Journey 

Transforming Jeff Koons’ Balloon Dog into a fully functional speaker was a feat of engineering and design. Over 50,000 hours of development went into perfecting not only the acoustic performance but also the user experience, all while preserving the iconic form.

The challenge was to seamlessly integrate high-performance sound technology, along with intuitive controls for volume and track navigation, into the sculptural design.

Advanced material research, precise acoustic calibration, and innovative solutions were key to balancing aesthetics with functionality. At Lexon, design is about more than appearance: it’s about making technology intuitive and seamlessly integrated into everyday life. This speaker is a testament to that philosophy, merging art and engineering to create an object as functional as it is iconic.
